feels like Christmas...

It snowed! At last, the whiteness engulfed us and wrapped our souls with the warmth matched to its intense coldness. Luckily the world didn't stop, as we headed to church. I actually did something new at church- i got to bless the sacrament bread, surprisingly with an even tone and comfort only afforded by feeling the spirit. i enjoyed it very much and would like to do it again. i've never been into Christmas much but mormon influence has taken a hold of me and now i thoroughly enjoy leaving treats on people's doorsteps and listening to spiritually-high music. don't get me mistaken though i still enjoy a good game of halo 3... tonight we went to our ward fireside and spent time with our ward family. another show of my Christmas spirit. ice cream was abundant and good times shared by all. however, driving through the snow and ice .35 mile back home was a bit frightening. fortunately, we got home unharmed. i got venison ribs and salami complimentary from my good families i home teach waiting for me. thanks all, have a wonderful pre-christmas week.
